Brilliant. Instead of investigating right wing terror in #ColoradoSprings (leading to mass shooting at #ClubQ ) #FBI and CSPD spent a year infiltrating housing and social justice activists.

#ClubQ. Unbelievable!
"Senior pastor Steve Holt of the Road at Chapel Hills, a local church, had preached transgender identity is "demonic" and the result of "massive evil." Similarly, Scott Bottoms, a pastor at the Church at Briargate who was elected as a local state representative in November, called drag performers "pedophiles" and then added the death penalty is "too nice for pedophiles.ā
Across right-wing media, the hateful word of choice these days is āgroomerāāwhich shamelessly and wrongfully implies children are the sexual targets of not just the LGBTQ+ community but of anyone seeking to educate around questions of gender identity and sexual orientation."

To the surprise of absolutely no one, the suspect in the Colorado Springs LGBTQ club shooting ran a neo-Nazi website and regularly used gay and racial slurs online.
This new information was disclosed during testimony by a police detective at a hearing to determine whether the shooter can be charged with hate crimes.
I'm sure the National Review and every conservative pundit that attacked @oneunderscore__ for his reporting will be posting apologies for their reprehensible behavior.

In 2022, there was widespread discrimination against #transgender people
Even liberal outlets such as the #NewYorkTimes contributed to #discrimination in opinion pieces
Every day this year, remember one transgender person who lost their life.
None of these #trans people should have died. We need to stop the hate to save lives.
Today, please remember Kelly Loving, a 40-year-old #transwoman who was killed in Colorado Springs in the #ClubQ shooting on November 29, 2022.

"To the politicians & activists who accuse #LGBTQ people of grooming children and being abusers, shame on you."-MICHAEL ANDERSON
House Oversight Committee chair, Rep Carolyn Maloney sees the #ClubQ attack as part of a broader trend of violence & intimidation. She says that includes a rise in #antiLGBTQ bills in statehouses & in Congress, introduced mainly by Republicans. "These hateful pieces of legislation have fueled dangerous rise in extreme anti-LGBTQI rhetoric."
Discrimination against #transgender people was widespread in 2022.
Liberal outlets such as the #NewYorkTimes even contributed to this #discrimination in opinion pieces.
Every day this year, remember one transgender person who lost their life.
None of these #trans people should have died. We need to stop the hate and save lives.
Today, please remember Daniel Aston, a 28-year-old #transman who was killed in Colorado Springs in the #ClubQ shooting on November 29, 2022.

This is so fucked up. Also, Iāll bet the #security measures get less effective the farther you are from the orbit of #RuPaulsDragRace.
